Subject: gapers' block
In Chicago, a traffic slowdown caused by drivers slowing to look at an
accident in the opposite lane, or some other sight (currently a portrait of
Dennis Rodman of the Chicago Bulls, changing hair color as Rodman does) - is
called a "gapers' block."
Is that term used elsewhere? If not, what?
Thanks - Allan Metcalf
